With great pleasure I remember my participation in the traditional tournament in Alushta

The FIDE commission didn't allow to award me a rank of Grossmaster according to the results of the 23 games in my previous tournament, where I fulfilled the norm of GM. One game was enough to be awarded a rank of Grossmaster. At that moment I received the invitation to play in Alushta. The tournament was memorized by its perfect organization, comfortable staying, tasty food, caring personnel at the head of the director of tournament Mr. Galperin. The tournament itself was very interesting. I managed to play a number of creative games and fulfilled the final third norm of GM and became the youngest Grossmaster it the world! I wish organizers and participants further success in Alushta!
